… as long as the giant corpos paying through the nose for the data centers continue to vastly underprice their products in order to make us all dependent on them.
Just wait till everyone’s using it and the prices will skyrocket.
- Comment on My PS1 died today 2 weeks ago:
They embedded a PS1 in the PS2, but the PS1 compatibility for the PS3 and later is emulation. Also the PS2 compatibility for most of the revisions of the PS3 is emulated too. Only a couple of the earliest models crammed a PS2 in there

Princess Jellyfish is short but it has similar fashion themes.

If you think people will pay for AI slop, you must be young or deeply cynical

The vast vast vast majority of artists create art without expectations of payment nor the ability to do it full time, yes.

Points to profile picture
Legend of The Galactic Heroes. It’s a slow burn, but it has dozens of characters and many of them have emotionally satisfying arcs.
- Comment on We* emphasize exclusive access to objects more than we ever did. 5 weeks ago:
Bigger than ever in post industrial society, maybe. Pre-industrial times almost everyone shared almost everything. The ones who didn’t share were rich, and even they often would invite guests to stay for a whole season semi-regularly because of their ridiculously big houses and desire for entertainment.

If it’s built as well as the deck, it should be great
- Comment on Steam Hardware Announcement 5 weeks ago:
FSR4 only runs on RDNA 4. The Steam Machine has RDNA 3, so FSR3 is the limit
- Comment on Steam Hardware Announcement 5 weeks ago:
1080p can look bad on a 1440p display though, since it doesn’t go evenly in and you’ll need good upscaling.
And that’s why it’s better to use 720p in the cases where you can’t do native 1440p.
- Comment on Steam Hardware Announcement 5 weeks ago:
There are currently 2 third party handhelds that are officially supported by SteamOS, so at least 2 manufacterers have taken them up on it so far.

Yes

If they keep it shut down I suspect individual states will split off as their own nations eventually.
- Comment on Logan Roy is objectively and factually a better father than Clark Kent 1 month ago:
Hey, so, I know those words sound really satisfying in that combination, but “objectively and factually” there’s so single system of morality nor metric of quality for fatherhood that anyone could judge by, so “objectively and factually”, your thesis is an opinion statement and by its very nature cannot be a fact or objective truth.
- Comment on Billionaires are extremists 1 month ago:
Well yeah, they exist at the extremes of society and push almost exclusively for their own further empowerment.
- Comment on My Dream of a Home Router / Server 1 month ago:
I suspect you could get the price on something like this down to maybe $100-$150. Basically a small low-power Intel box with an SSD and at least 8G of RAM could handle all of these services.
The hard part would be pre-configuring each of them and building/adapting software to make this kind of stuff easy for end users.

Girls On Film is the theme song still if you swap the DVD version to the Japanese audio for the intro
- Comment on [Discussion] What is the best rated 18+ anime you've seen? 1 month ago:
Yeah, that’s fair. Psycho Pass Season 1 was a complete banger.
- Comment on [Discussion] What is the best rated 18+ anime you've seen? 1 month ago:
Psycho Pass season 1 was phenomenal, but it kinda fell off after season 1.
I feel like Ghost In The Shell Standalone Complex holds up better, overall.
- Comment on [Discussion] What is the best rated 18+ anime you've seen? 1 month ago:
Probably Berserk

Happy to help!
- Comment on Every single time I think of restructuring my homelab storage. What do you use for storage engines and how does it benefit you? 1 month ago:
I just use mergerfs and SnapRAID so I can scale dynamically when I can afford new drives. Granted it’s all fully replaceable media files on my end, so I’m not obsessed with data integrity.
- Comment on Luke Cage is way to overpowerd to be a "street level" hero 1 month ago:
When people say “street-level hero”, what they typically mean is a hero who doesn’t have strong enough powers to be in the big leagues, think “fighting crime” rather than “fighting alien invaders/gods/interdimensional beings”
- Comment on Luke Cage is way to overpowerd to be a "street level" hero 1 month ago:
The only thing keeping Luke Cage from approaching Thor/Superman levels of OP is that he doesn’t really have a movement power. At best he can run really fast or jump really far, but he’s too conscientious to go launching himself all over the city like the Hulk. If he landed on somebody (or their car or whatever) he’d feel pretty bad about it, so it’s not really an option unless he’s in the middle of nowhere.
